User talk:Dan Bollinger~enwikinews

NOCIRC symposium
You appear to share a name with the webmaster of ICGI, whose blog post you reproduced here.

I would advise you to read the suggestions I posted at the top of the article (Recent events give focus to genital symposium). I also suggest reading the conflict of interest policy to see if it applies to you.

Let us know if you would like a volunteer someone connected with the topic. (I don't know if there is an interviewer near Berkeley, but Wikinews interviews are often done by email or phone.)

Right on all counts. This is my first venture into using WN. Yes, if you have someone near Berkeley, or would like to do an interview by phone or email, the contact information is below. Since they are at the symposium, it is best to contact them via phone to setup an interview:

Marilyn Milos RN, nocirc@cris.com, 415) 488-9883 Georganne Chapin (914) 806-3573

11th International Symposium on Genital Integrity, UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY, CA. Dan Bollinger (talk) 13:40, 30 July 2010 (UTC)


 * I transferred those details and an extract from your blog to Wikinews:Request an interview. This is a public and open wiki, so anyone (literally) or no-one could volunteer to contact Ms Milos or Ms Chapin.  If you complete a successful interview, neither can anyone guarantee that it will be published.  The event seems like a newsworthy topic, so I wish you success at earning fair and honest news coverage, at Wikinews and elsewhere. --InfantGorilla (talk) 17:25, 30 July 2010 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Dan Bollinger. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Dan Bollinger~enwikinews that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:15, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
